Paul's possessive/anger/control issues have really popped up recently, again I'd relate that to Sophie. He can't stand her being with someone else but pretends to be the shoulder to cry on, waiting for it to eventually end then he's back in there. She revels in it too, as attractive as people find her, she comes across as having some issues - keeping that stick of Blackpool rock on the back burner for one. It's like she needs the constant gratification.
